Game Refuses to Start
« on: December 30, 2004, 05:36:37 am »
I start the game and everything runs smoothly and i select my character and while the game is loading it just makes a windows error sound and everything goes black.  I have to alt + tab my way out.  Ive toyed with the setup options and have sound turned off.  Ive updated the game and i dont see why its not working anymore.  I always used to run it fine.  I just think its odd because its not really a crash because it doesnt go back to the desktop its more of the game just totally graphically collapsing.  No screen whatsoever.

Hey that happened to me too man, I think its because one of your files for the game got screwed up.  All I did was Uninstall the game and then installed it again.  Shouldnt take that long.  Dont sweat it.  Hope to see you online..

if your screen goes black dont forget to update your graphic card driver !

Personnaly Ive the same window error and even if I tried something like 20 times nothing changes ! in fact my problem evolute in the bad way cause before after something like 5times it worked correctly !

I tried to uninstall and reinstall nothing changed.

I tried to change pssetup options with no sound for example nothing changed.

the md5 is ok same code...

What should I do ???

Ok the weird just got weirder.

Firstly, i check for new updates daily so im fine there but heres the odd thing, the screen went black again when i ran it after my last post so heres the weird part, i opened a folder in the background and ran it yet again and i worked fine, i logged out and closed the folder and it went black when i tried to run it.  All my trials were like this and its really strange.

How odd, I have the same problem.

Except, occasionally, it works...

Hmm, I just got a dump file of the error, should I do anything with it?

Same if I use fullscreen it goes black but if i use window the dump file thing comes up.
